    Summary

    It’s winter in Hawkins, and Mike and Will aren’t speaking anymore. Living in Mike’s house, Will tries to be invisible, spending most of his time in the basement.

    Then the power goes out — and if there’s one thing he dreads more than facing Mike, it’s the cold.

    or

    Seven nights in which Mike and Will have to sleep in the same bed, even though they’re barely friends anymore.

    Summary

    “You showed me what was possible,” the first voice hisses, claiming him with a pride that feels like a parasite.

    “They’re innate,” the second voice promises, offering hope like a gift Will isn't sure he’s allowed to keep.

    Will Byers is a radio tuned to a frequency that only plays nightmares. He has powers now; new, cold, and terrifyingly similar to the monster that once hollowed him out. But as he spirals on the porch of the Wheeler house, a very real, very rambling Mike Wheeler arrives with a jacket that smells like coffee and a truth Will isn't ready to believe: that a monster wouldn't be this afraid of hurting the people he loves.

    Summary

    Mike raised the shovel once more. Blood glistened on the metal of the weapon and on his face where it had splattered, dark eyes glinting with hatred. It was wrong. Mike never looked at him like that.

    What if Will tapped into the Demogorgon’s mind just before Mike began his attack?

    Summary

    Death might be here for Will Byers, again. This time, it is formless. This time, it sidles up right alongside his heart, and it asks him, in an approximation of a language that does not contain words, do you give up?

    No— no, he does not.

    "Will? Will, come on, please, say something—" Mike's rambling by his ear, clutching onto him like a fishing line.

    "Mike," he makes his lips say, because saying Mike's name is as natural as breathing.

    Mike's looking at him with wonder-slackened lips, and Will's looking back, couldn't look away even if he wanted to.

    death has come for will byers more than once. unconditional love just so happens to have come more.
